Since then…

it has not been exciting.  i was hopeful for something new.  unfortunately, its the same old dance.  i changed my profile age back to my current age, and i am still getting emails and winks, so i guess that means i have a good written profile.  but besides that, i am getting these older guys writing me.  which isn’t so bad, because that’s the fact of the matter.  it all changed back after i had a conversation with at 26 year old living in bakersfield who could only talk about his love for techno music.  why didn’t he write that in his profile?  oh yeah, because i would NEVER WRITE HIM BACK if he originally wrote that.  i digress.  let’s talk about the other bad dates.

after the persian, i had a date with actor dude.  i liked what he said in his profile, how he was just interested in meeting people, seemed to have the same outlook on the LA scene.  of course when i met him, he was cuter in his airbrushed headshots (touche).  i could overlook that.  but the way he walked was like he was 20lbs heavier of pure muscle.  that, which he was not.  you know the type, walking with the arms away from the body as to form an imaginary box.  ew.  anyway, the night went on and i continued to drink.  it was drinking my sorrows away of how pathetic it has been instead of for fun.  that ended badly with him thinking i wanted something from him which he, upon further investigation, did not have.  i was so mean, but rightfully so.  i told him it wasn’t doing it for me and i just needed to leave.  i also told him that i was used to being with blk guys and that he shouldn’t hate them b/c of that.  i told him he’d “find someone”, and left.  since then, he continued to stalk my profile and write me hello messages which i had to stop by saying i wasn’t interested in him.  which he responded with, “are you playing hard to get?”.  idiot.

next was a good date.   a good date with a good guy from a good background with a good job who looked good.  he was on the nerdy side, cute in a bit of an awkward way, but i could definitely see myself dating this guy.  we had an interesting conversation of 2 hours and he left me by giving me a hug and a kiss on the cheek.  i liked this guy!  but apparently he didn’t feel the same way.  or was scared.  or something.  because i asked him out and he just said he was busy and going out of town.  of course.  my luck.   malo.

after that, i got an email from a guy who lived somewhat far away, but was proactive in the calling and texting.  he seemed cool.  we spoke and i agreed to meet him.  i was a bit ill when i met him, but the breakdown is he was shorter than stated, heavier, and had bad skin.  on top of that, he was basically trying to move me into his town already and talked to me as if i were property.  DUMP.

monday i finally met up with with this chef dude.  my partner in crime who is also on match (a girl) joined us.  turns out they had more in common than i did with him.  i was also not that attracted to him.  DUMP.

today i met a guy who is older than me.  i told said friend on match his username.  she looked him up and divulged to me she met him 5 years ago on match, slept with him, and found him boring and never talked to him again.  great.  we went for lunch and she was right about the boring part.  luckily i had no desire to find out of the other statements held water.

tonight, i’m meeting up with a guy i’m not that interested in but he wrote me and we agreed to meet.  i’m kind of at the point where i don’t really care anymore and am going to need a break soon.  good thing i only signed up for 3 months.  6 months would be KILLER.
